Abstract

Slump retaining polycarboxylic acid superplasticizers with different side chain molecular weight were synthesized by using ethylene glycol vinyl polyoxyethylene ether monomers with different molecular weight by different ester to ether ratio and the same ester to ether ratio. Gel permeation chromatography and total organic carbon analyzer were used for structural characterization and adsorption tests to investigate the effects of slump retaining properties of concrete. The results showed that different ester to ether ratio and side chain molecular weight had different effects on PCE molecular weight and molecular weight distribution. At the initial stage of adsorption, the adsorption capacity first increases and then decreases with the increase of side chain molecular weight. In the later stage of adsorption, the adsorption capacity increases first and then decreases with the increase of ester to ether ratio. When the ratio of ester to ether and the molecular weight of side chain increase, the slump retention performance increases first and then decreases. With the increase of side chain molecular weight, the slump retention performance of the same ester to ether ratio increases first and then decreases.
